True; us, the Web community (which also built the frameworks) as a whole, is to blame.

I'm not really fighting you on the merits of frameworks (which should be obvious to everyone), but are you implying that implementing a design pattern is equivalent to building a framework?

I totally agree with you on the scalability aspect, but I think one of the main issues correctly pointed out by @ilovefood is that a lot of juniors nowadays start directly with one of the big frameworks, with no idea on what vanilla JS is.

I really hoped that we learned something from the jQuery experience but it seems to happen again and, maybe this is just my feeling, but JavaScript is kind of the only big enough language with this issue.

What strikes me is the low usage of the RSS button; the "RSS is dead" polemic might not be that unsubstantiated after all.

It's funny that in the old Google Docs I was able to upload documents with no issues in any browser/OS, but it seems that in Drive I cannot do it using Opera on Linux (but I can using Chrome). Also, the way in which shared documents have been handled in the transition is just plain stupid.

Exactly. And how exactly did this post get on HN?

Are there any issues with certain passwords (too long, containing special characters)? Also, where is the forgot password link?

What about beginners that don't know that VIM has certain features?

There are some resources mentioned in this post: http://howtolifeguide.com/post/16664436505/how-to-read

It's funny that they want you to log in via Facebook.

Here is a TED talk with the creator of Duolingo, Luis von Ahn (he also built reCAPTCHA): http://www.ted.com/talks/luis_von_ahn_massive_scale_online_c...

88%+11%+2% = 101%

That's the real shock. Double check your graphs before posting.

This has been in Chromium for some months now, not really fresh news. Anyway, hard to tell if it is really useful; seems that it tries to emphasize the apps, which, at least in my opinion, are not a real success.

It would also be interesting to see if the voters are left or right handed (or ambidextrous?); I assume there is some correlation between this and the most used Shift key.

I am still waiting for that obvious evidence. That includes more details and also tests on the latest dev version of Chrome (Chromium). I am not defending Google in any way, but some claim with no real evidence shouldn't convince anybody.

I can understand their joy but the last sentence in the post and the Twitter update: "Sorry Google...we have officially pwned Google Chrome and its sandbox with a 0-Day." [1] seem rather unprofessional for the "world leader in vulnerability research for defensive and offensive security" [2], a company with "Government customers".

"degrees are not accomplishments"

Is this really true? Will I be wasting at least five years of my life by taking various CS degrees? I have some professional experience (web dev for a startup) but that's really everything beside school I have time for, and I'm not the only one in this situation.

Some parts of the article were spot-on, but certain assertions seem rather drastic and biased.

I don't know if it can be considered "unknown", but vnStat is another cool CLI network monitor.
